Campo Valdes raid

The Campo Valdes raid occurred in 1989 when the DEA attempted a raid on a house in the Campo Valdes comuna of Bogota to kill or capture three of Pablo Escobar's sicarios. The sicarios, who had just killed a local woman and the wife of the unwitting Avianca Flight 203 bomber Jaime Carrera (who wanted to testify against Escobar), were taken by surprise when DEA agents Steve Murphy and Javier Pena exited their car and headed towards them. The DEA killed one sicario, while Jose "Lizard" Santin and Roberto "Poison" Ramos attempted to flee. Ramos nearly killed Murphy, but he ran out of bullets and was forced to flee as Murphy shot at him; a pre-teened Medellin Cartel member threatened Pena with a gun as Santin escaped, and the boy later ran away, which relieved Pena. Murphy rescued the baby of the slain mother and decided to take it into his care, having his wife take care of her.
